Workshop

Device programming in Max for Live with Cycling '74*

Hosted by Tom Hall

Max for Live is a powerful toolkit for creating your own custom devices for use in Ableton Live.

In this workshop, Cycling ‘74’s Tom Hall will walk you through the creation of a generative synthesizer using modules in BEAP - an open source modular synthesizer developed by Stretta, included in Max 7, and made up of a large number of high level audio building blocks.

Users who follow along will leave with a greater knowledge of BEAP and a functioning generative Max For Live device of their own. No previous programming experience is necessary, but some understanding of the way synthesizers work will help.
